119 10 Card Draw (1/2)
”You have completed a special mission; you get 10 card draws as a reward!”
”There are 180 cards in the card pool so you can get 10 of the 180 cards as your reward.”
”Warning: You can only select ten cards from the pool only once. Once selected, no changes are allowed!”
The cards then came to life and arranged themselves neatly in the air in front of Lin Huang. There were 10 columns and 18 rows which added up to a total of 180 cards. They were all identical; completely black with a golden question mark in the middle that looked more like a golden burning flame.
Lin Huang initially thought he could pick 10 cards from a pool of 18 cards. If that was the case, the probability of getting better cards would be higher. Now, his options were more and so, the probabilities of getting good cards were no better than a regular card draw.
”Bibbidi-Buddhadi-Boo [1], please give me some good cards! No mission cards please, I beg you!” Lin Huang pressed his palms together and said a short little prayer with his eyes closed. He then opened his eyes, took a deep breath and picked 10 rewards cards.
”This, and this…”
The remaining cards disappeared after he was done. The cards that he picked were arranged into two rows of five columns in front of him. One by one, the cards revealed themselves.
”Congratulations, you have received Epiphany Card x1, Advance Card x1, Small Destruction Card x1, Healing Card x2, Double Card x2, Provisional Transformation Card x3.”
”I got one Small Destruction Card and two Healing Cards?!” Lin Huang was over the moon, for the very first time, he actually had good luck. He remembered clearly how powerful the Small Destruction Card worked on the Sand Monsters. As for the Healing Cards, he had seen how useful it was several times. He had just used his last Healing Card earlier and now he has replenished them.
”Too bad there’s only one Advance Card. If I had two of them, I could upgrade the Alexandrian Eagle into an Epic Card.”
The four Advance Cards he obtained earlier were used on Bai and Tyrant.
He was familiar with some cards, but not all of them. He took a look at them. The Epiphany Card was completely gold with a blue brain amidst a boundless starry night at the front of the card. He turned the card around to read its description.
”Epiphany Card: Gives the user a chance for an epiphany.”
”Remarks: Consumable, it can only be used once. The effect depends on the user’s credentials and talents.”
”Good stuff!” Lin Huang was satisfied with the cards he selected. He got cards that could be used in practical situations and none of the mission card that was useless.
”My luck has finally changed for the better!” He happily kept all his cards and headed to the shower.
Maybe he was in a good mood, he had a good night’s sleep and it was after eight in the morning when he woke up. After checking out from the hotel, Lin Huang ran out of the foothold and summoned the Alexandrian Eagle to head to Xiagong City. If not for the city curfew, he would not have stayed in Xiaoxia City. However, he was not so concerned about Lin Xin. Ever since the parasites were eliminated, even if a transcendent monster were to invade a B-grade large foothold like Xiagong City, he would be able to stop it.
Lin Huang arrived at the hotel in Xiagong City at 8:30 in the morning. He opened the room door with the keycard. Lin Xin was standing at the door with a gun pointed at him.
What are you doing?” Lin Huang raised his voice.
Lin Xin then put down the gun, ”I thought it’s a bad guy at the door… Why didn’t you inform me beforehand that you’re coming back?”
”I came back right after I woke up, I just realized I hadn't told you when I was already walking over.” Lin Huang shrugged his shoulders.
”Have you settled your stuff yet?” Lin Xin kept the GrayEagle17 back into storage.
”Yes, it’s been done.” Lin Huang nodded in satisfaction.
”Let’s book the tickets back home.”
”You haven’t been to Xiaoxia City yet, don’t you want to visit the Xiagong Ruins?” It was odd for Lin Xin to change her mind.
”I don’t want to go anymore.” Lin Xin shook her head.
”What’s wrong?” Lin Huang could sense that she was upset.
